Town of Midland Hit by Ransomware Attack
Return To ArticleThe town of Midland has confirmed it is dealing with a cyber-attack.
Hackers illegally accessed the town’s network on Saturday morning and infected it with a virus which was able to encrypt a number of systems. They are now demanding a ransom to decrypt the systems which have been rendered unusable.
This comes just months after Wasaga Beach paid a ransom to hackers after their data was compromised.
